KPL/SCLK

MEX Fictional SPICE SCLK Kernel
--------------------------------------------------------
 
   This file contains the data necessary for converting from ET to
   ticks for the fictional MEX spacecraft clock (clock ID code 41.)
 
   This fictional clock begins at 1970-JAN-01-00:00:00.000 ET and
   continues for about 2 billion seconds. The clock has a granularity
   of 1/65536th a second.
 
   This SCLK is intended for study purposes. If you have any questions
   about this file that these comments don't answer, contact Boris
   Semenov at NAIF -- Boris.Semenov@jpl.nasa.gov or (818) 354-8136.
 
 
Implementation notes
--------------------------------------------------------
 
   This SCLK file is constructed so that the valid SCLK strings are
   simply the number of whole TDB seconds that have passed since the
   Ephemeris epoch 1970-JAN-01-00:00:00.000, followed by the fractional
   seconds expressed as the count of 1/65536th of a second. Thus
   1/288929292:32768 simply represents the epoch that occurs
   288929292.5 TDB seconds past the ET epoch 1970-JAN-01-00:00:00.000.
 
   For all time, the clock runs at the same rate as TDB. There is only
   one partition for this clock.
 
   You must load this file into the kernel pool before using any of the
   SPICELIB SCLK routines. The code fragment
 
      CALL FURNSH ( < name of this file > )

   performs this task. To convert between ET and UTC, you will also
   need to load a leapseconds kernel. The additional call to FURNSH,
 
      CALL FURNSH ( < name of your leapsecond file > )

   will accomplish this. Note that you must supply the actual names of
   the files used on your system as arguments to LDPOOL. Because the
   file names are system dependent, we do not list them here.
 
   For more information, consult your SPICELIB required reading files.
